Wednesday Walk make me smile post going festive

This post if for Wednesday walk challenge And Make me Smile Collaboration challenge, initially our collaboration was once a month but due to the popularity of it we have decided to make the collab a weekly thing :)

Note I want to thank @bluemist for sponsoring this challenge starting from this week, due to their support I will be from next week sending out Steem to a selection of people who partake in the Wednesday walk as I will explain in the guidelines below all of the liquid rewards for this post will be shared with a selection of participants.

Wednesday Walk is a challenge started by me, the idea is to get out for a short walk and get some shots of what you can see within a short distance of your home office or wherever you start. And this is my entry for this week, but first, let me explain the challenge.

This is my post for the Wednesday Walk challenge hosted by myself, let me first explain the guidelines

Try and get out once a week for a short walk, can be from your office, home or anywhere really and walk for a few blocks or a few minutes looking for things to get shots of.

Your walk does not have to be on a Wednesday I just ask if possible to share your walk photos on a Wednesday.

Try and get a few shots not just one

You can look for anything in general or decide on one subject you want to get shots off.

Make a point of looking around and up and see what you can find to get shots of that otherwise you may miss

Do a post with the shots you get on a Wednesday and tag it with #wednesdaywalk, also if you happen to join, please leave a link to your post in a comment on this post and I will try and visit them all.

Following me and resteeming the post so more see it would be appreciated but isn't a rule just a suggestion.

I am not strict on these rules and hence why they are called guidelines and not rules

I will try and visit, and upvote all who take part in the Wednesday Walk, plus I will be sending some Steem to a selection of those who participate, please note this is a change from sending out SBI shares, as I did in the past.

Actifit

A good App that works well in conjunction with the Wednesday Walk or any day walk is @actifit, which rewards you with Actifit Tokens and Steemit Upvotes, if you use the app to track your steps and do a post of your actifit total each day.

If you do a lot of activity I do recommend you check it out

Make me Smile Collaboration

As I mentioned above Wednesday Walk is collaborating with the [Make Me Smile] hosted by @elizacheng,

Here are the rules for her challenge

Your post can be writing, singing, video, poem,drawing, photography etc.... the most important part is your post Make me" smile, Remember, the ME is whoever read/view/listen to your post and this includes YOURSELF.
b. Your content must be ORIGINAL CONTENT
c. Please include at least 50 Words in your post

So the collaboration giveaway is as follows
As well as the SBI shares normally given away from the Wednesday Walk and Make me Smile Challenge, we will send one SBI Share each to one lucky winner who joins both challenges in one post

This weeks Wednesday Walk remains in the theme of most of my posts this week Festive decorations around NYC, and these shots were taken mostly on a walk a week ago today at around this time

Starting with the Louis Vuitton Shop on 5th Avenue, with the big Star in front of it over 5th Avenue

And this last shot is not the best of shots, but I have to share it as my Daughter in Law always has loved Coach bags since i have known her, so I would be remiss not to include a shot of it in a post

Weekly giveaway of shares


I have sent Steem to a few people selected through a random draw so on the weekend all people who joined in last weeks Wednesday walk. this week I am sending 5 Steem to @traciyork, @c0ff33a, @practicaleric, @nutman, @deerjay, @eglep, @ninahaskin,
@elizacheng will send one SBI share to @kamrunnahar,

Note: my projected total liquid steem income from last Wednesday's post will be around 35 Steem I am sending out 35 Steem to people.


As @elizacheng and I collaborated with our Wednesday Walk and Make me Smile Challenges

And one person is randomly drawn who joins both challenges to receive an SBI share from me and this week it is @TBA

I would love to be able to give everyone who joins a Steem Basic Income share, but I don't make enough steem each week to do so, but I will try and share them around fairly between those that join the challenge

I hope a few of you may find this an interesting challenge and decide to join in.


unless stated otherwise all photos used in my posts are taken and owned by myself, if you wish to use any of my images please contact me.

Btw....my Wednesday started pretty early. Here is a short visit in morning

https://steemit.com/wednesdaywalk/@steemflow/wednesday-morning-walk-to-wildlife-sanctuary

thanks I really enjoyed visiting your post ;)

Winter photography helps make everything look crisp and clean in the early morning walks you take. Enjoyed candy bar photography with unusual art today.

Ohh yeah thats one thing I do love about taking photos in Winter is how crisp things feel, not so much the cold LOL

Beautiful Christmas decorations...

👍🙂👍

There is something about the simplicity of that store on Park Ave. and the second to the last one that really speaks to me. I think the big lights and decorations are awesome, but sometimes the simple elegance of displays like that can really be awesome.

I know what you mean the big fancy ones are cool to see, but I do like the ones that just add a subtle touch like that store ;)

Your city really shines these days :) great photographs, love the combination of blue atmosphere and warm colors of the lights and decorations

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

Have a great day

The photos look awesome Jay! The first and second photos are my favorite. I do like how the NYPD colors work so well with the Harry Winston colors..that was a nice catch. I love this time of year with the Christmas lights and decor. Looking forward to seeing more! 😊 💖
Thank you again for the steem! 🤗

Thanks, and I hadn't really thought about the matching colors of the NYPD can and Harry Winstons but your so right they blend so well I had not noticed it LOL
I did a lot of editing yesterday and think I have enough for at least 10 more posts ;)

You're very welcome! I've been feeling so wishy washy with my posts the last couple of weeks that I've started and scrapped way too many. It's good you did lots of editing so you are ahead of the game! 😉 💖

I have lots of friends and family around the world and its become a routine for me to get out and get to as many of the festive sights as I can at this time so I can share them, and many more will be coming inthe next couple of weeks

Como siempre son hermosas fotos en sus caminatas. En algún momento podré tomar bonitas fotos en mis caminatas para volver a este bello concurso. Un saludo.

As always they are beautiful photos on their walks. At some point I can take beautiful photos on my walks to return to this beautiful contest. A greeting.

for the walk it doesnt have to be beautiful, beautiful or real all is welcomed ;)

Gracias, en cuanto pueda salir a la calle con el teléfono, estaré de nuevo tomando muchas fotos.

Thank you, as soon as I can go outside with the phone, I will be taking many photos again.

Most welcome and take care ;)

I love that there are certain people starting challenges and competitions.. But most of all engagement on the steemit platform. Keep it up buddy and @steemit will be a very big industry

Thanks I think myself that engagement is what makes Steemit special and glad to do my little part to help with that

Aww, Louis Vuitton shops always display something extraordinary. Your shots definitely put me in a festive mood. 😀

Ohhyes they always do a nice display but this year they went even more impressive :)

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

Have a great day

Hello @tattoodjay,

Amazing photographs on the illumination of buildings during Christmas times.

Here is my Wednesday walk:

https://steemit.com/wednesdaywalk/@janaveda/wednesday-walk-or-urban-park-the-east-park-of-caracas

Thanks and I just visited your walk thanks again :)

Those decorations are truly mesmerizing. Beautiful shots! The good thing is you don't need sun to photograph these, quite the opposite 🎄😊🎄

Thanks and yes thats very true, taking a tripod in would help but i am to lazy most days to carry it into the city LOL

I don't blame you! I hate carrying things, although I have always mu handbag, lol. Nevertheless, your photos are perfection as they are! Always a pleasure 😊

WellI dont have a handbag, but I do have my camera bag with normally at least two lens my ipad and sometimes a laptop so adding a tripod wouldn't be much more weight but i seldom do LOL

Hey @tattoodjay, here is a little bit of BEER from @johannpiber for you. Enjoy it!

Oh my word, some of these look like they come from a story book, absolutely stunning; I especially like the Harry Winstom festive decorations, beautiful building! Just gorgeous @tattoodjay!

thanks I do like the Harry Winston as well not over the top quite refined perhaps is the word i am looking for

I finally did it! My first Wednesday walk...
Took me a while :)

Glad to have you join and it was a great one :)

Wednesday walk is one of best things on Steem, though I dont always post on it. I will do when its holidays more I think. Love the Christmas cheer in northern hemisphere.. Christmas isnt same in southern imo.

Thanks thats so kind of you to say I do love all the support it gets and enjoy visiting all the posts each week, yeah over here they do the season so well

So glad to be back with Ships sailing by Humpty Dumpty's Peak

Glad to have you back and what a lovely post :)

First things first - wicked appreciate the Steem, @tattoodjay and @bluemist!

tattoojay and bluemist thank you wednesday walk.gif

Next, love these festive shots! My favorite is the Louis Vuitton store front, with the Park Ave pair of xmas trees coming in a close second. Totally putting me in the holiday mood!

Speaking of holidays, my walk today has some holiday decorating done by Mother Nature (for the third time in a week... argh! LOL!)

https://steemit.com/wednesdaywalk/@traciyork/wednesdaywalkwithsandydecember11th2019-9ghvgf5hpr

Thanks as always for hosting, and... !tip steem

Most welcome I am glad that with his help I can send out more steem to people each week ;)
I saw your posts and it was lovely, and that seasonal decoration in your post looks good on the screen or postcards but not so much out the window LOL

You are much welcome, amazing walk as always!
